Says ONYX, “Today I have great news! I have been ADOPTED! After 5 months of fostering, my foster mom has finally decided to admit that I am indeed a foster fail!”

Foster mom Lesa sent us this note:

Onyx has waited 6 years for a forever home and now she has one! I met Onyx through #OperationFosterBound a wonderful program by Foster Dogs NYC that features 7 dogs who are long time shelter dogs. I had no intention to adopt a dog at that time and just wanted to help this little girl for 1-2 months.

During the last 5 months of fostering, not only have I fallen in love with Onyx, but I have received tremendous support from the foster community in NYC as well as from friends and family. Foster Dogs has graciously paid the adoption fee (to Heavenly Angels Animal Rescue) for Onyx and I couldn’t be more thankful. Unbelievable! In addition to Foster Dogs, I have to thank all that have been so active in helping Onyx find a home over the last 5 months.

Thank you to all of Onyx’s followers who have been so kind and supportive with reposts and kind messages. Your support and determination to help this little girl find a home has not gone unnoticed or unappreciated. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I hope you continue to follow @onyx_is_home to see what she is up to!”
